ANGLOGOLD ASHANTI REALISES C$70M FROM SALE OF B2GOLD SHARES                     
  AngloGold Ashanti Limited, through its wholly owned offshore subsidiary, has  
realised net proceeds of C$70m from the sale of its entire holding of 31,556,650
shares in Vancouver-based gold producer B2Gold Corporation.  This stake,        
equivalent to about 10.17% of B2Gold`s outstanding shares, was sold yesterday in
an orderly fashion, after the markets closed.                                   
  Proceeds from the sale will be used to fund AngloGold Ashanti`s exploration   
activities in Colombia, including the Gramalote project and pending such use, to
reduce borrowings.   AngloGold Ashanti remains fully committed to its Gramalote 
joint venture with B2Gold, in which AngloGold Ashanti owns 51% and B2Gold owns  
49%.

Certain statements made in this communication, including, without limitation,   
those concerning the economic outlook for the gold mining industry, expectations
regarding gold prices, production, cash costs and other operating results,      
growth prospects and outlook of AngloGold Ashanti`s operations, individually or 
in the aggregate, including the completion and commencement of commercial       
operations of certain of AngloGold Ashanti`s exploration and production         
projects, the completion of announced mergers and acquisitions transactions,    
AngloGold Ashanti`s liquidity and capital resources, and expenditure and the    
outcome and consequences of any litigation proceedings or environmental issues, 
contain certain forward-looking statements regarding AngloGold Ashanti`s        
operations, economic performance and financial condition. Although AngloGold    
Ashanti believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking        
statements are reasonable, no assurance can be given that such expectations will
prove to have been correct. Accordingly, results could differ materially from   
those set out in the forward-looking statements as a result of, among other     
factors, changes in economic and market conditions, success of business and     
operating initiatives, changes in the regulatory environment and other          
government actions including environmental approvals and actions, fluctuations  
in gold prices and exchange rates, and business and operational risk management.
For a discussion of certain of these factors, refer to AngloGold Ashanti`s      
annual report for the year ended 31 December 2009, which was distributed to     
shareholders on 30 March 2010.  The company`s annual report on Form 20-F, was   
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the United States on April 
19, 2010 and as amended on May 18, 2010. AngloGold Ashanti undertakes no        
obligation to update publicly or release any revisions to these forward-looking 
statements to reflect events or circumstances after today`s date or to reflect  
the occurrence of unanticipated events.  All subsequent written or oral forward-
looking statements attributable to AngloGold Ashanti or any person acting on its
behalf are qualified by the cautionary statements herein.
